This site feels a little too pro-American right now. The bire's color scheme should match our new Chinese friends as we walk on our new road to 小红书.

Fuck OFF Era!!

[Gamegirl Nostalgia]

Purity police are striking again. 

Y'all act like Tiktok aint censoring your asses and making you type le$bian and unalive.

Saw this on Bluesky, this app might not be the greatest.

TikTok refugees have already noted harsh restrictions on RedNote that have resulted in their content being removed or their accounts being suspended, including for mentioning LGBTQ+ identities or for women, wearing a slightly low-cut top.

Guess Era will have no where to go if they keep this up.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/this-forum-has-a-colossal-issue-regarding-the-dehumanization-of-arabs-specifically-with-the-palestinian-people.1081461/

Recently, two threads were made (here and here) where dialogue was shared that has been absolutely repulsive to me, a Palestinian.

• "No one really cares about what's going on in Gaza."
  
• "There's nothing left in Gaza for them to ceasefire with."
  
• "It doesn't matter what is agreed on, they are going to wipe out the rest of Palestine eventually."
  

Do y'all hear yourselves? Do you think that the people of Palestine are going to accept their fates so readily? Do you think that their lives are solely bargaining pieces on the international playing field?

They're not. And even amidst everything has gone on, the people of Palestine (including in Gaza) have continued to cherish their loved ones, go to school, work their jobs, and make joyous memories.

And even outside of these threads, I have seen on numerous occasions members brush off the devasting number of deaths that have occurred during this genocide, and even deny that a genocide is even occurring.

If a ceasefire is reached and upheld, we do not care who brokered it, and we will continue to spend the rest of our lives rebuilding what was lost, and creating connections anew as well. And this will all happen of our own volition, not through the grace of whatever president America chooses to elect: we are worth much, much, MUCH more than that.

Many Palestinian (as well as other Arab) members have left because of the way y'all have treated us, and I'm on the cusp of joining them because of the insensitive remarks y'all say and get away with.

Hammer of Hatsuho

From Palestine

I have never had sex while wearing or with someone wearing a furry suit.

Wow, really living up to that username.

I no longer feel safe here.

That's some very specific descriptions for a publican. Sounds like you're making that up!

[HaughtyFrank]

The Tiktok thread is such insanity. Meanwhile I can't even think of any meaningful organized effort stemming from Tiktok. It all just seems like a shield to excuse that they're addicted to scrolling videos. That they instantly jump ship to the far more censored Chinese version only confirms that

[MMaRsu]

My god they actually have a Sonic thread going on there.. Jesus christ.

And pretending the hate is overblown.. LMAO

There isn't enough hate against modern Sonic and his dumb catchphrase "Gotta go fast".

It was funny when it was a dumb meme, 10 years ago. Now that they've made it his actual catchphrase in the movie, miss me with that horrible cheesy shit.

This sonic hate is merely a smokescreen for laughing at child minded idiots, of which I am one

Jesus Christ, what is this word vomit!!

[Steven Snell]

Probably will come across as the biggest boomer ever here. But isn't TikTok for like teenagers with no attention span? Makes sense though that middle aged men who is trying to be women now will embrace something teenage girls hang out at.

[Ethan]

If the thirty-somethings on ERA, with a job and, sometimes, a family, can't imagine their life without their tiktok feed, imagine what effect this shit has on the brain of a teenager or a kid. 

But my organizing with my marginalized homies...

such desperation to claim as many others as possible

like imagine the Sonic umbrella saying "even if you don't like sonic, just because you're part of a niche fandom you're technically equivalent to a sonic fan too, so you're one of us, so you have to defend us!! (please please defend us)"

[Besticus Maximus]

When you know Nepenthe cut her teeth as a sonic forum admin it all kinda makes sense

More proof that furries are intolerable degenerates

I was looking at the comments about the new game from the former developers of Witcher 3 and man, a lot of comments saying that this will be the real sequel to The Witcher because Ciri is the new protagonist of W4, like why everything today has to be Us against them? When was the slightest respect for others lost? I'm so tired of the poisoning in discussions about Games.

The complete lack of self awareness

Is there any way to more thoroughly convince people that you are on the wrong side of an argument than writing a New Yorker essay on ResetEra.com in response to an already-banned poster?

Have to mention how hideous the LGBT 'flags' are. Atrocious color palette, just awful to look at.

Were the Concord devs behind it?

I agree with that part but…

like imagine the Sonic umbrella saying "even if you don't like sonic, just because you're part of a niche fandom you're technically equivalent to a sonic fan too, so you're one of us, so you have to defend us!! (please please defend us)"

Is not exactly a wrong idea in other contexts. Is the slippery slope argument. We use it to defend stuff like free speech and religious protections.

But trans communities are both cynical and immature that use it to call everything they dislike Nazism.

Men aren't as good as women when it comes to color selection.
